Their carts regularly blow over in the wind, leaving trash strewn around the neighborhood for everyone to pick up. Our pick up time randomly changes from 5:30 PM to 6:00 AM and back again. There’s no way to know when they’ll show up, so …

Wonderful service.
Great place good customer service
Great facility and OUTSTANDING customer service at Bondurant hazardous waste drop off.
The wait times here are beyond unreasonable. What can be done? Im going to bring up to our to our city officials
Recycling bin schedule has been so far, so good. Thanks. 👍🏽🤠 …
Took clean cardboard out of our recycling bin and put it in our garbage bin.
I hate seeing the trash from four mile creek all the way to Prairie city. They need to get a better system. They are a part of the chamber of commerce. I know they can do better.
Really enjoy the initiative to have an electric vehicle. But leaving it plugged into one of the four chargers available for public use in the East Village for multiple days at a time seems unnecessary.
In the last year we have had nothing but problems with our garbage pick up. We have 2 waste containers and at first it was they wouldn’t pick it up because it wasn’t 3 feet away from each other. We didn’t know that was a rule so we made …
I took a variety of paints, stains & oil to the NW Transfer Station in Grimes this morning. Great facility…not-so-great service. My attendant was less than friendly and only spoke to make an insult and tell me my bill for latex paint. …
I am extremely unhappy with the service and I will call and complain. I spend 8 dollars on metro waste bags, Sit them by my curb and they don’t get picked up. A neighbor came over to tell us that they tried to pick one bag up and the bottom …
I’m a huge proponent for recycling but the service I’ve received from Metro Waste makes me wasn’t to opt out altogether. I give up. I’m simply too frustrated for words!
I regularly take items to the landfill so I’m familiar with the pricing. Today I took bulk tires that weighed in at 580lbs which was .29 of a ton and was charged 150 dollars to dispose of them. I asked the lady at the counter why it was so …
Forgot to put out my overflowing recycling bin for pick up this morning due to forgetfulness caused by a terrible head cold. Called and spoke to Donna who told me they would get someone out to pick it up for free because “things happen”. Best thing to happen to me all day. Thank you MWA.
Not sure what has happened at the landfill in the last 3-4 weeks but someone needs to figure it out. Waiting in line on the highway every day and one day 1 mile from the entrance isn’t going to cut it The leadership needs to get out of their plush office’s and go help. Really hard to make a living when it takes 2-3 hours to dump.
Big boy in front office needs attitude adjustment. Beyond belief. Must have seniority otherwise got rid of him long time ago, just sayin. This is at hazardous waste site in bondurant, IA. Been better service just pour
to say this company does not care about anything is an understatement. Every Thursday when they pick up our neighborhood recycling there is cardboard and plastic on the street. If it falls out when they are tipping the cans they do not …
